The AirTAC Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ32 SAIJ32AX550-40S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 550mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SAIJ32X550-40-S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. With a nominal 550mm stroke and a 40mm adjustment range, you can fine-tune the effective travel window down to 510mm during commissioning without swapping out the unit.
This model features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (option A) for enhanced corrosion resistance and utilizes PT tapered port threads (G1/8). The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and the integrated -S magnet is fully compatible with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic solid-state switches for precise end-position detection.

Double-rod model: the rod passes through the rear cover, so both piston faces lose rod area and push is shown at the annular-area value. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Dial in the exact 510-550mm end-position during initial commissioning to perfect product handling without machining external stoppers.
Quickly adapt the cylinder's effective stroke on the packaging line when switching to a different carton size, minimizing downtime.
Use the 40mm rear adjustment screw to fine-tune the retract end position for precise ejection or clamping tasks on automated machinery.
Choose this 32mm bore when your application requires a maximum thrust around 402N at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to a 40mm bore increases that force to 628N. The adjustable stroke is ideal for variable end-stops or product changeovers, saving the cost of external stops. Because the 550mm stroke is relatively long for this bore size, an external guide is recommended to prevent excessive side-loading on the 12mm rod.
When replacing an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 32mm bore, 550mm stroke, 40mm adjustment, PT G1/8 port, and -S magnet. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 (omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR). Note that the rear adjuster acts as a travel stop, not a lock; the cylinder will not hold a load without live air pressure, so consider SAIL or BSAI variants if true load-holding is required.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective travel from the nominal 550mm down to 510mm, providing a 510-550mm usable window. This stopper only limits the travel end; it does not lock the load without live air pressure.
